Hi Simon,
I'm using a Trow & Holden hammer. I ended up sending the piece back to the
manufacturer for repair as soaking it for days proved futile. I rent a space
from a plumbing company and even with their wide array of wrenches, vises
and the bravado of some, eh-hem, large plumbers, we could not get the tool
apart. So, I'm not sure if the hammer has a shear pin. It would make sense
though.
Anyone else out there ever take a Trow & Holden hammer apart?
I was pressing a deadline at the time and ended up having a new hammer
over-nighted. I'm now the proud father of TWO smoothly running air hammers.
Thank you again for your advice.
GABE
